WTF, one of the most serious injuries in a WC ever. Whoever did this needs banning.

Also worrying about our next game even more. They will play without Neymar but they will play double es strong FOR Neymar.

Fred touching the ball ten times in 90 minutes shouldn't induce fear.

If Fred got injured, you would have a reason to fear Brazil more. Neymar scored several times and had assists on top of that, he isn't easy to replace. People may say that Neymar didn't play well the last two games, but at the same time it's also true that Brazil only scored on corner and free kicks in those two games. A properly organized defense shouldn't have too much trouble.

Brazil has overall class in their team and are able to beat any other team even without Neymar. This applies to Germany as well but they are unstable as fuck and you can count on Löw to have the stupidest ideas for tactics and being too stubborn to change any of those before it becomes too late(which is what cost us the previous cups).

Also the Brazilians are now double as motivated because Neymar's injury is just that severe. Even if Germany wins this they'll probably leave the field with a few broken bones of their own.

You still have the three German traits on your side. Never underestimate them.

If I think back to the past tournaments I think one of them might be "Quit while you're ahead".

Unbelievable how much luck Germany has. Neymar is out.

Damn, Brazil already lacked offensive quality before that injury. If a guy like Fred plays five games... gosh, Brazil is so screwed.

See above post. I think this makes the game actually harder for us.


I think the same.

This game just got allot harder for Germany.

I can't imagine how much passion and support the crowd will give now. 



 

People waste no time, damn.



Anyway, it'll be either Willian or Bernard replacing Neymar. I like both of them, but we still have Fred. Might as well play with 10 players.

Good one, but it's sad at the same time.

 

By the way, I'm really hyped for tomorrow. I'll be cheering for Netherlands and Belgium.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

And I think you guys are being a bit too idealistic. As if the World Cup was one of those low-budget american female soccer movies, where the misunderstood protagonist suddenly finds the strength to help her team on the finals! I'm pretty sure every single one of these men are training and playing to their full extent already, close to the breaking point both psychologically and physically.

Though yeah, anything could happen. Germany has had her share of bad games so far.

And Germany scored a goal on a free kick cross. Its Brazil x Germany a match doesnt get bigger than that on a World Cup, anythign can happen.



Second place as of now, Carl is 6 points ahead of me.

Damn Mexico, I put them as WC champions. Have no chance to win this, fuck. :(



Its really sad what happened to Neymar but and I know people won't like to hear this, the brazil team had it coming.
Let's be honest in the first half players like Fernandinho was out to injure James with the kind of tackles he was receiving, the referee let the tackles slide because guess what it's the home team.
What do you think the Colombian players went into halftime thinking,
"well if brazil are going to play that game so can we".

It started with the Brazilian players coming out with intent ,it continued with the bad refereeing and Colombia just finished it.
Everyone on the field is to blame for Neymar's injury.
